In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while mixing with your hands or a wooden spoon until a dough forms.

Fill the Dumplings
Place a tablespoon of the pork filling in the center of each dough circle. Carefully fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, creating a pleated dumpling shape.
